First Mommy Only Bathtime

My big accomplishment today was bathing Declan by myself.  So long as our little guy has been in our lives bathtime has been a tag-team event.  Declan's bathtub sits up on the counter in the bathroom and we have to keep play and splash at bay because we don't want water all over the walls.  Today while Daddy was at work I decided to give Declan his bath by myself but placed the baby tub on the floor of the shower.  This allowed Declan to splash and play because the water would just get all over the shower stall....and....given this opportunity there was zero splashing and he simply played with his water toys gently and didn't splash at all.  But he still loved his bath. He was a very good boy, no tears, just smiles and giggles.  We made sure to send a picture to Daddy at work so he'd know what we were up to.


This evening Declan had a baby skype date with Grandma and Grandpa May.  He was in great spirits and was paying attention to the monitor.  He was laughing, flapping his arms and kicking his legs and then finished up with a little bottle.  Good news...he was out cold and ready for bed by 8:40pm.  Sweet dreams little man.
